Sorry, folks, I was never really a fan of hers to begin with.

Each show as a 'bucket' that it pulls from. CM has theirs. Sheen $$ has his. CSI and NCIS have theirs. The newly released $$ isn't necessarily allocated to a new show or an existing show. Production costs are on the rise so it could simply go to cover day to day operations. In my professional life, my budget gets cut all the time, so I have to give up something. The $ doesn't go anywhere else, it's just to help with profitability.

Keep in mind that CBS "shares" CM with ABC, so ABC get some of the $$. I'm not sure how all that works but they don't want their rival to get more $$ from them than they have to.

We don't know the full story behind Cook or Brewster and we probably never will. Given how ruthless CBS has been in the past with mouthy stars (the CSI fiasco a few years ago, anyone?), there may be an option or two out there for the actresses we just don't know about?

I think I'm going to call him $heen from now on. Kind of like Ke$ha. I can stand both about the same amount (as in, not much, although Ke$ha has the edge b/c a couple of her songs are pretty catchy) and I think it suits him.

It just seems suspect to me that this is all coming about right about the same time the spinoff is premiering. Yeah, I know correlation =/= causation but I think people are looking for something to blame, and the spinoff's an easy target. I'm not particularly inclined to be charitable to it, either, b/c it's still draining creative resources from the original if not financial. Plus it just looks really stupid and doesn't have enough hot people in it, and is thus not relevant to my interests.

IMO it's still shitty what CBS is doing to CM, regardless of the reasoning for it
